Shura of the Beastman

Back home, Kars put Ivan on the small chair by the table, then turned around and entered the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Ivan shook his short legs, sighing inwardly when will he grow up?

Feathered snake saw Ivan's little cute look with his cheeks in his hands, and immediately flapped his small wings and flew in front of him, but as soon as he got close, a fork pierced through the air and nailed feathered snake on wooden table.

This is a scene that is almost inevitable every day, but Ivan still finds it funny.

The food in this world is very similar to Western food. They use knives and forks, and the plates are made of porcelain, with gorgeous patterns and European medieval style. Of course, it may be Kars’s personal preference, after all, he has not been exposed to the outside world. , I don’t know what is the level of technology in this world, but I can still tell from a small place that it should not be a primitive society. At least the clothes Kars helped him make are all silk, at least the kitchen utensils are made of iron, at least the layout of this house Much like modern homes, they are divided into bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, halls and study rooms.

"Abba, I can eat by myself." Ivan looked at the spoon that Kars handed to his mouth, and said firmly.

Disappointment immediately appeared on Kars's face. The child has not been fed by him since he gave up milk and fruit. Although he felt proud that his child could hold a spoon to eat by himself at such a young age, he was deprived of the opportunity to feed his father. Entitlement, it's frustrating to think about.

After eating, Ivan sat on the swing under the tree with a book in his hand to read. The characters in this world are very strange, like tadpoles, and the pronunciation is also very special. He also finds it very difficult to learn. When Kars was three years old, he He was enlightened, and he still hasn't fully mastered reading and writing, so he spends two hours every day reading, and asks when he doesn't understand. He doesn't want to become illiterate!

Kars looked at the quiet and well-behaved child not far away, and felt that his baby was the best in the world, and no one could match it.

"Kars." He called softly, and he didn't think of anyone except Emma the unicorn.

"Is there something wrong?" Kars immediately put away his rippling expression, turned around and asked with a gentle smile.

"I made some red mulberry tea, come and have a taste."

Carl paused for a moment, then nodded, but when he came to the gazebo on the other side of the yard, he found that all the beasts were there. He couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and sat down calmly, waiting to see the five The beast has something to say.

In fact, since Ivan was born, these five will gather in the yard of his house from time to time, but there are only a handful of them all at the same time. I always feel that today is a bit unusual.

"Kars, it's been five years before I knew it. Time flies so fast. I still remember that Ivan was in your arms when he was little, and now he's already this big." Use nostalgic tone as an entry point.

"Everyone is so familiar, don't beat around the bush, tell me, what's the matter?" Kars took a sip of tea gracefully, looked up at the five beasts in front of him, and said straightforwardly.

The five beasts feel choked at the same time, so being too familiar is sometimes not necessarily a good thing.

"Then let's talk straight." Feathered Serpent always likes to be straightforward when facing Kars, so he opened his mouth first, "Kars, do you feel that there is something wrong with your education of Ivan?"

"What do you mean?" Kars said coldly, his eyes turned cold.

"Kars, don't get me wrong, you listen to us first." Emma quickly smoothed things over, "We have no malicious intentions."

Kars' complexion was still not very good, but the chill in his eyes was gone, he just pursed his lips and waited for their next words.

"Do you think Ivan... is too well-behaved?" Emma said softly after considering her words.

Kars frowned, "What's the matter? Is it normal to be mischievous and jump up and down like an orc to make people feel uneasy?"

"That's not what you mean." Silver Wolf took over the conversation, "Kars, let me ask you, what did you look like when you were five years old?"

Carlston lived, vaguely seeming aware of something.

"Non-orcs have been loved by thousands of people since they were born, and it is common for them to be pampered and self-willed. Even if they are educated properly, or they are born with a gentle and quiet personality, I have never seen someone as quiet and well-behaved as little Ivan in childhood." Pass."

"Do you think he is not as sensible as a child?" Xuehu looked at Ivan who was quietly reading a book under the tree, "Children in this period, whether orcs or non-orcs, are curious about the world, they are lively and cheerful. With inexhaustible energy, playing is their favorite thing to do instead of studying."

"Kars, when you were five years old, could you spend a day in front of a book without arguing and immersing yourself in it?" the black dragon asked sharply.

"Kars, life in the mountains is good for us old guys, but it can only be boring for a child, but Ivan has never lost his temper as a child, never cried, he doesn't seem to understand What is play, if it goes on for a long time, I'm really afraid that his mind will be twisted." Feather Snake sighed, his words were worried.

Kars lowered his head and pondered, and the little things he had with Ivan in the past five years appeared in his mind. That child has always been smart and well-behaved, and he can learn immediately as long as he has been taught once, and he can even draw inferences from one instance. It will also make him feel that it is not a child but an adult who can think independently.

However, he seemed to have never seen him laughing out loud, that child always smiled when he laughed, and he had never heard that kind of childish laughter that belonged to a child!

"In the end...what's the problem?" He was at a loss. Based on how much he and the five beasts loved Ivan, his personality should have developed into a savage, willful, arrogant and domineering (囧, this is not right) , but how did she get such a quiet temper now?

"Cars, you overlooked a question." Emma said.

"What is it?"

"The environment has a major impact on the formation of a person's character. Since Ivan became sensible, he has only been in contact with us and you. He has never been in contact with his peers, so he will subconsciously imitate our words and deeds. He doesn't know how to play because He doesn't know what to play, we will love him and pet him, but we can't teach him how to act like a baby, and we don't know what children should play, Kars, if you really love this child, you shouldn't let his childhood appear like this lack of."

Kars rubbed his forehead with some headaches, "Do you mean to let me move back down the mountain and integrate into the group life again? You know this is impossible."

"Actually, there is still a way." Feathered Snake flicked its tail, a little cautiously.

Kars narrowed his eyes, "Oh? What is it?"

"Among my descendants there are orcs with the blood of 'returning to the ancestors', and the age is not much different from Ivan. They can be sent to the mountains to be his companions, and it can also make Ivan understand that non-orcs should enjoy the protection of orcs as a matter of course. "The cool black dragon said quickly, causing the four beasts on the side to glare at it immediately.

You bastard, you got there first!

"My family has it too!" x[-].

"Kars, my family has a pair of twins, an orc and a non-orc, both of the 'ancestor' blood, and it is most suitable to send them to accompany Ivan!" Emma looked at Kars with shining eyes, It makes the other four beasts very angry, but there is really no way to compare with others, the non-orcs who are 'returning to their ancestors'?They really don't have any.

The so-called 'returning to the ancestors' means that the concentration of the blood belonging to the holy beast in the body is the same as that of the first generation of orcs, and they all have extremely high innate abilities. As long as they grow up, they will definitely become an extremely powerful existence.

Kars looked at the five in front of him twitchingly, and couldn't help shouting: "This is your purpose! You want to abduct my lovely Ivan! You want to send the orcs up the mountain to be with Ivan and grow up together. The way of cultivating a relationship and forming a successful partner? No way! Don’t let me see you for a month! Otherwise, I will beat you once!” Then he put down the teacup in his hand heavily, and it shattered with a bang. Turned around and left without looking back.

The rest of the five beasts were a little downcast, Xuehu looked at the black dragon complaining, "It's all you, you opened your mouth so soon, didn't we agree to proceed step by step?"

"If I don't say it, you will say it, why did you let you take the lead?" Heilong said without guilt.

In fact, the idea of ​​the five holy beasts is very simple. For Ivan, a non-orc with an elemental physique who appeared only after 800 years, everyone wants him to combine with his offspring. After all, the stronger the combination, the easier it is to give birth to a powerful The existence of the family can also push the family to a more glorious level.

Although they have selfish intentions, it is also because their respective families are the top existences in the Southern Continent, and they happen to have orcs with 'ancestral' blood. Ivan's future strength can be foreseen, so who is worthy of the best and most outstanding orcs? Get him?It is the most normal and reasonable thing to choose a future partner from their families, and it is also good for Ivan.Naturally, there is also a sense of rivalry. Who told them that although the five major families are peaceful, the orcs are naturally aggressive and hope to compete for the first place. They can be compared in terms of offspring ability and mates.

But now the hope of being close to the water and gaining the moon first is shattered.

%%%

Although Kars left angrily, he also listened to what the five beasts said.

Undoubtedly, the mental abilities displayed by Ivan are extraordinary, and they are definitely worthy of the word genius, but he understands better than anyone that geniuses are not good that day. Geniuses are incompatible with their peers because of their premature growth of mind and ability. .Now in the mountains, Ivan doesn't feel this way because he hasn't had contact with his peers, but what about the future?He always needs to be in the world.

Kars sighed, a childhood with only learning but no play...it was too painful.

After hesitating for a moment, Kars walked up to Ivan.

The little man who was reading a book found a shadow coming, looked up and saw Kars, smiled and called "Abba" softly, which made Kars' heart soften.

Even if Ivan will have a partner in the future, if anyone dares to abduct his child now, he will definitely let him taste the forbidden curse! (Child control is the most loving~~)

Kars picked up Ivan and sat on the swing, holding the soft child in his arms. He felt a sense of happiness that he hadn't experienced in many years, and his heart was warm.

"Does Ivan like reading very much?" Kars looked down at the travel notes in Ivan's hand, and felt that fortunately this child chose children's books instead of those advanced tomes, otherwise he would really be worried.

What Kars didn't know was that Ivan had no choice but to choose children's books, because he didn't know a long list of words in those big tomes!So let's lay the groundwork first.

"Very interesting." Ivan nodded honestly. These children's books are introductions to the many legends and histories of this world. They look a lot like myths, and he read them with gusto.

"Then...wouldn't Ivan feel bored with reading books every day?"

"No, isn't there still Abba and Emma?" Ivan looked at Kars with some doubts, and then understood what he meant.

He really likes the days of peace and tranquility now, where there is no conflict with the world. What he regretted the most in his previous life was "the son wanted to raise him, but he didn't want to be loved." After acknowledging Kars as his family and calling him "Abba" from the bottom of his heart, he So he made up his mind to be filial to him and accompany him. If so, why would he feel that the life on the mountain is boring?In his cognition, as long as he is accompanied by his family, no matter where he is, he will not be dull.

It's just that these words can't be said clearly, who told him that he is just a five-year-old child now.

Kars was very happy when he heard the words, but he was a little worried. What if this child develops a withdrawn personality in the future? "Won't Ivan be curious about the world under the mountain? Don't you want to see it?"

"Yes, but Dad didn't take me down the mountain. There must be your reasons. I know Dad must be doing it for my own good. When you think it's suitable, you will take me down the mountain or let me go down the mountain, right?" Ivan took it for granted. He thinks that there must be some reason for Kars to live in seclusion in this desolate mountain, or to avoid enemies, or tired of the bustling down the mountain, or other reasons, whether it is because of consideration for his family, and He is not a real child, he is also an old bone inside, he really doesn't have much expectations for the world below the mountain.

Kars stopped talking, but slowly tightened his arms around Ivan, expressing his restless heart.

Too sensible and too painful, how can his baby be so cute!No, he must not let this child lose his playfulness, absolutely not!

A few days later, Kars took Ivan down the mountain.
